1Samuel 7-9 & Luke 13:1-21. The people are told by Samuel to put away their idols in 1Sam.7 by Samuel. They do and gain victory over the Philistines. Over time Samuel puts his sons in charge. They are like Eli's sons. The people want a king. God tells Samuel to give them a king. God leads Saul, a tall & handsome man to Samuel.
Jesus tells of the need to repent. Then tells a parable about a fig tree not producing. Probably means that if God doesn't find fruit in our lives we will be cut down. Jesus heals a woman on the Sabbath of a disease caused by a spirit. Shows the connection between sin and the degradation of creation. Jesus then tells two more parables about the kingdom of God. The mustard seed and leaven.
